The disposition of the leading labor aglta'crs
n tvronpize over the classes whom they claim
to represent and guide. and to ignore their IN
terests was manifested again yesterday at the
,,,ooting If the Central Labor Union request
was sent in by the workingmen employed by
Mr. Ebret the brewer. begging that the boycott
upon beer from their brewery should be raised
because it was hurting them good deal more
than it was harming their employer. The peu-
ton was laid on the table and the boycott con-
tinues. 1t does not seem possible that intelli-
gent laborers in any kind of work will stand
this sort of thing long. Certainly no employer
anywhere could be more Indifferent TO his en-
Moves wishes than the Bosses "Of Clarendon
Hall to their poor followers.

An ANALYSIS of the vote on the High License

An anaIysIs OF tne VUte Oh INC HIgH LFct11se
bill at Albany, on Friday, shows that the full
Republican strength IN its favor was not polled
then. Its supporters believe that enough votes
to put it through will be finally forthcoming
from the sixteen members who were absent.
But neither on this point, nor on any other. IN
deed should the bigh-license advocates at the
capital, official or otherwise, be too sanGuine.
The bill will not go through easily if the rum
interest and the Third-party Prohibitionists
can help it. Probably they will try to kill the
measure by amendments. If that proves to be
the case, the real strue gle has only just begun.

Socialism in London has taken on queer
phase of late; nothing more nor less than
going 10 church. At some of the churches the
newcomers have behaved badly, grooming
when they did not like the prayers, aud kissing
the petitions for the Queen and Royal family.
But recently they have done better, either
through fear of the police or on account OF the
sermons Yesterday thousands of the "unem-
ployed." with red banners, filed old st. Pauls
Cathedral to overlooking and blocked the
streets for great distance around. But they
made no disturbance. OF course the intention
of the leaders is anything but good. They
would only be too pleased to have the doors of
the churches closed against them. Yet the
clergy ought to be too wise for that. Instead
of being dIspleased, they will doubtless seek
earnestly to use the opportunity to influence
for good the minds and hearts of thousands
whom otherwise they would never have
chance to reach. In the end some of those who
went 10 SCOT may remain to pray.
Although only four legislative days remain.
one important appropriation bill has not yet
been reported in the House, while several are
in conference committees. The Naval, Legis-
lative. Deficiency and Fertilization bills have
not vet reached the Senate. For that body to
give any proper consider ton to these bills
will be impossible. The Consular Appropriation
bill reached the Senate in mangled condition.

A Baseball Sermon.

Rev. Mr.. Woolsock, popularity known as
The Deacon" in his sermon up the creek
last Sunday, as reported by the Oil City
Derrick, made few remarks pertinent to
baseball. Pointing out of the window at
game IN progress on the adjoining Will
son flats he said: See that loaler with
the bird cage on his head standing like a
straddle-bug behind the bat. He is not
desecrating the Sabbath day by playing
ball, because he isn't playing ball. He
can't play. He imagines he can, of course,
and he goes through all the painful contor-
lions of a real ball player but in the
devils score-book he is charged ten times
over for every error and a nice record he
will have when the season is over and the
time for his eternal rest should be at hand.
1t will be sorry eternal rest for him."
Just then some one made long hit and
shout went up from the crowd
80 Yes. hooplai" yelled the deacon, rails
ing his voice above the din, "hoopla till
the cows come home, but unless you raise
your voices IN hosannas to the Lord, YOU
will never reach the shining home plate OF
everlasting life. That was long hit to

but finally you will get a goose egg in the

to the eternal roast you go. Saint Pete

Snapdragons or the Whangdoodles; if yor

Irrigating in Fresno.

The scientific use of every possible supply
of water is one of the secrets of the extraor-
binary growth now manifest in Southern
California; there, the mercantile value of
water is fully appreciated and hence is de-
veloped to point where each stream has
a most az great value as if its drops were
liquid silver. When capitalists are willing
and anxious to lay iron water-pipes for
miles, as those at Rosamond on the Moiaye
desert, to reclaim the waste. it shows what
water, land and sunlight in combination
are worth. Soil that receives the water
poured upon it, and allows it to soak
through and drain off too soon, is bad for
the irrigator's purpose. The soil that he
seeks has a peculiar power of retaining and
giving forth the moisture. Into such soil
the water Seeps from each little ditch, and
the moisture gradually rises and approaches
the surface. Its capillary properties are al
most perfect, and gallon does more good
here than fifty gallons on unretentive soils.
Such soil fills up like a sponge, and, in
places like the Fresno basin. where people
formerly had to dig fifty feet or more for
water, they now find it from six to ten feet
from the surface. In such soil, when the
surface is well cultivated, vines and trees
grow all summer and bear immense
crops; even in the hotter and drier season
delicate plants of the garden thrive under
such conditions. On the broad Fresno
plains the work of irrigation is so light
that women who have bought their twenty
or forty acre tracts in some of the colonies
enjoy guiding the small streams from fur
row into furrow, and one often sees a sun
bonneted figure, hoe in hand watering the
strawberry garden-much as, in Riverside,
Pomona and Pasadena, the most accom-
plished of women do not hesitate to per-
form out-of-door work George e.. FfeemGl

Southern STYLE in Dress.

The several cities of the Union have their
characteristic types of female beauty.
There are specific differences of form and
feature, complexion and the mold, and in
all that goes to make up that accenuated
but Understandable popularity known as
style. After all, a great deal of this geo.
graphical distinctiveness in female beauty
resides in dress. The women of particu-
lar locality are apt TO conform to special
standards of taste they dress to suit all
attendant conditions of climate and season,
and hence it is that persons of discrimina-
ton and experience in observing social
customs in different places will have nc
difficulty in declaring that this or that lady
is from New York, Chicago or New Or
leans, as the case may be.
OF all the charming women who grace
the various Northern summer resorts
those from New Orleans might, if they
possessed more egotism and less modesty,
easily claim to bear the palm, especially in
the taste and elegance with which they
dress. Rich without gaudiness, elegant in
their simplicity, artistic in the highest de-
gree, but never ignoring the just claims OF
economy. the New Orleans women are
without doubt the best dressed to be seen
anywhere. Giving due praise to the taste
of the fair wearers, the grand debt of obi
cation is without doubt due to the mer-
| chants and modistes of New Orleans. They
have made q study of the subject, and
after years of experience they know Just
what is required TO costume our women
with regard to their special styles of beauty
| to their habits of life. to the climate, an6
to all conditions and possibilities of theil
| existence. If the ladies contemplating
summer tours to the North should post.
pone the completion of their outfits with
the intention of providing them elsewhere
they will deprive themselves of a distinc
| ton which is justly the pride of the South
and cannot be supplemented by any arts
not educated to all the demands of th,
situation.-NeW Orleans PicdWene

mean holding property in common, nor
necessarily cooperative settlement, though
both these forms have occurred. The Cali
fornia colony, pure and simple, means
only the division of large tract of land
into small holdings It is chosen, bought,
paid for and improved by individual own
ers. Small holdings of twenty or forty
acres, bought five or eight years ago, at
cost of $50 or $40 per acre, water rights
secured, are now worth, in the Fresno
region, about $500 per acre, and readily sell
for that sum. The true colony idea con-
templates the ultimate division of all the
land within the reach of the water bitches
throughout the State of California, into
such tracts. owned and cultivated by Amer
can citizens. 1t is we'll known fact that
in the Bay counties, already, small fruit
farms and vegetable gardens-patches of
ten and fifteen acres-snpport family in
comfort. An almond, peach, prune or
apricot orchard of fifteen or twenty acres,
we'll cared for, is considered very desirable
property in Santa Clara, Alameda, Solano,
Contra Costa, Napa or Yolo counties. Such
beautiful sections of country as the famous
Vacaville region, attest the value of small
compact holdings devoted to fruit culture.
